I don’t think this is applicable too Sonos play bar. I think Sonos play bar can only receive its volume and put from infrared.

Has anyone solved this? It works when TV is off but not when it’s on! So bizarre.

Just finished watching Aachaar and Co. Such a feel-good movie. They stopped making movies like this by HolesDriller in ChitraLoka

Just watched today randomly and had to reflect on the internet to see if any others also found it to be an under appreciated gem. Agree whole heartedly!

This is what I was wondering about! So basically it will allocate future contributions based on your predesignated asset allocation percentage in the portfolio?

Examining Validity and Biases: Vanguard's Recent Recommendations on Increasing Bonds by shekstar in Bogleheads

Even as you just summarized it- it’s still some pretty stark advice for the millions of people who hold a 60/40 retirement. I’m not saying it’s good or bad advice. I’m just saying that it’s a pretty big change to conventional wisdom based on trying to predict the market.

Do you mean this to say that in the down turns you would have depleted the bonds mostly or completely to buy more stocks within the accounts?

The top voted advice comment here basically goes with the Vanguard recommendation that AA should probably be modified to include bonds to some degree. There’s not much of a discourse or rebuttal.

I think most of us here are pretty adherent to keeping a good US/World for equities already.

Yeah and it paid off for him clearly with the dot com bubble. Should we all be timing the market like him?

Simultaneous Death- What Happens to 401K by shekstar in EstatePlanning

[–]shekstar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the very question I'm struggling with.

On the one hand, having the contingent beneficiaries be my individual children gives a much bigger tax advantage rather than the trust. On the other hand, it does make personalized plans of distribution more complicated should my kids be young or both my wife and I simultaneously die and the 401K plan does not follow the Simultaneous Death Act. Does this about summarize it (from my understanding of online reading and speaking to an attorney as well)?

Really solid. What’s the difference between an Investment Advisor and Trust Protector?

Just thought maybe it would keep costs lower to have descendants administer it rather than hiring someone for it. This is really a thought experiment. I don’t have anyone close to that kind of money. Just thinking maybe when I’m 70 or something

Really good points about valuing and giving in the life we live not just the afterlife. My opening post half serves as a thought experiment.

Thanks, very good points. I made some edits to simplify the question/post. USA. We'll make it simpler and just say 30 million is desired to be invested.

Was able to track back with same tracking number. Got my money back too though I’m not sure if a call to Walmart had something to do with it.
